INTEGRAL observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud region
S. Mereghetti, D. Gotz, A. Paizis +16
We present the preliminary results of the INTEGRAL survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud. The observations have been carried out in January 2003 (about 10^6 s) and January 2004 (abo…
The Anomalous X-ray Pulsars
S. Mereghetti, L. Chiarlone, G. L. Israel +1
The Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) are a small class of pulsars with spin periods in the 6-12 s range, very soft X-ray spectra, secular spin down on time scales of ~10^3-10^5 years…
The Anomalous X-ray Pulsars
S. Mereghetti
The observational properties of the six known Anomalous X-ray Pulsars are described in the context of the main theoretical models for this enigmatic class of objects.
The Comptonized X-ray source X1724-308 in the globular cluster Terzan 2
M. Guainazzi, A. N. Parmar, A. Segreto +3
We report on the BeppoSAX observation of the X-ray source X1724-308 in the globular cluster Terzan 2. The broadband spectrum can be described as the superposition of a power-law wi…
